Eight generations of Bonins born in the United States, beginning with the family of Antoine Bonin (b. 1715) and Marie Marguerite Tellier (1726-1800). Antoine was a rifleman in the French Army of occupation of the Louisiana Territory; he married Marie in October 1740 while stationed at Fort Toulouse, Mobile, Alabama. Following his discharge in 1763, he and his family relocated in French territory west of the Mississippi River, settling finally in present-day St. Martinville, Louisiana. This Bonin family is distinguished from the other Bonin families from France, Belgium, Poland, Germany, or Italy by the term Bonin Martinet.

There was a long span of time, around 160,000 years from the creation of Adam and Eve to the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ who redeemed us from sins and so many things had happened in between those years. First of all, God had taken out of His breath. His only Son before He created everything, He was His Helper. He had chosen the earth from among the planets in the galaxy He created possibly because of its location from the sun He had revolving around it with other planets. At first, He created big animals like the dinosaurs to inhabit the earth. Then later on He thought of making a man from the soil in His own image and gave it a breath of life Adam. He had taken one of his ribs, after putting him in a deep sleep, and fashioned it into a woman, to give him a partner, Eve. They are put in the Garden of Eden to live where everything was available for survival. Later on, they were driven out of Eden due to their disobedience not to eat the fruit of a tree located in the middle of Eden. Eve took it due to the temptation by the serpent telling her she could be like God. She ate and gave some to Adam.

The Existence of God is an affirmation of faith in God and a warning of the dangers of a world guided by the religion of atheism. This book warns against a religion based upon chance, deficient science, and deficient atheistic evolution (as opposed to theistic evolution). Modern advances in molecular biology, 'cosmic' mathematics, and the psychology of atheism have vanquished atheism's intellectual and psychological raison d' tre. In one of history's great ironies, the birth of the New Atheism has brought about the beginning of the end of atheism as a legitimate intellectual position.
"Ghosts appear in place of whatever a given people will not face" (p. 65) The poems in Gravesend explore ghosts as instances of collective grief and guilt, as cultural constructs evolved to elide or to absorb a given society’s actions, as well as, at times, to fill the gaps between such actions and the desires and intentions of its individual citizens. Tracing the changing nature of the ghostly in the western world from antiquity to today, the collection focuses particularly on the ghosts created by the European expansion of the 16th through 20th centuries, using the town of Gravesend, the seaport at the mouth of the Thames through which countless emigrants passed, as an emblem of theambiguous threshold between one life and another, in all the many meanings of that phrase.
Between 1855 and his death in 1867, Charles Baudelaire inaugurated a new—and in his own words "dangerous"—hybrid form in a series of prose poems known as Paris Spleen. Important and provocative, these fifty poems take the reader on a tour of 1850s Paris, through gleaming cafes and filthy side streets, revealing a metropolis on the eve of great change. In its deliberate fragmentation and merging of the lyrical with the sardonic, Le Spleen de Paris may be regarded as one of the earliest and most successful examples of a specifically urban writing, the textual equivalent of the city scenes of the Impressionists. In this compelling new translation, Keith Waldrop delivers the companion to his innovative translation of The Flowers of Evil. Here, Waldrop's perfectly modulated mix releases the music, intensity, and dissonance in Baudelaire's prose. The result is a powerful new re-imagining that is closer to Baudelaire's own poetry than any previous English translation.
